 OPERATION 
 
DIVIDER ROD LENGTH 
 
Divider rods are removable and two lengths are 
provided as standard equipment. The longer rods (A) 
are suitable when crop requires running down, while 
the shorter pointed rods (B) are better in standing 
crops. See the chart below for recommended rod 
length for various crops. 
 
 
 
NOTE: A floating divider kit is available to extend the 
separation of crop to a point in front of the reel. This can 
be beneficial in short (up to 75 cm [30 in.]) lodged or 
standing crop. The floating dividers are also effective in 
tall standing crop. This attachment is not recommended 
for tall lodged crops. See Options and Attachments 
section.
